A. S. TALLMADGE. one of the Carni-
val notwithstanding the selection
of a site for the coming ice palace, while
nothing definite has been done in the
matter, the old site at Central Park will
unquestionably be chosen. l am sorry
that the general public should be so in
different as to the beneficial results
which these winter carniyals bring
about. Our city had its first real active
boom when it built its first ice palace.
We have been very late starting in this
year. but now that we have got the
movement started, it only remains for
the public spirited citizens to subscribe
literally and our third ice palace is as
sured. Money is what we want now,
and if the scheme fails the people have
only themselves to blame. l have been
opposed to a stock company in this ice
carnival business ever since the first
year. Ibelieye as the whole city is ma
terially benefited by these carnivals that
the expenses should be met by general
taxation. l suggested year ago that
the city buy up the Central Park site for
carnival purposes, but nothing was Gone
in the matter.

@. r, JOy,

G. z. JOY, Architect of the Ice Palace
According to the plan adopted by The
Carnival association the palace will
represent a Norman castle, the main
tower of which will be les feet
high, at each of The four angles
Of the structure will be another
tower ST feet in height anu Inc main
entrance will he an arch 20 feet in
diameter. The walls surrounding the
palace will be surmoun.ed by smaller
towers and pinnacles and conspicuous
in the largest niche, midway between
the main tower and the entrance, will
be the figure of gigantic white bear.
Other inches in the front of the palace
will be occupied by figures representing
curriers', skaters, SHOW shOerS and tobog
gamers. The entire structure will cover
an area of 1872 square feet, which will
make it trifle smaller than the last
palace, but the new one will be
more elaborate in design and fin
ish. Central park will undoubtedly
be the site of the structure
and more attention will be paid this
season to the electric lighting and the
effect will be at once brilliant and i'm
posing. Upwards of 200 of these lights
will be distributed throughout the
palaces interior, and il the ice used is
anything like as good as that of last
year, they will be plainly visible through
their icy exterior and form dazzling,
beautiful picture

Hon. j. L. Gibbs.

Railroad Commissioner JOHN L. GIBBS
Since the commissioners made their
recent tour of inspection over the vari
Gus roads in Minnesota, | have travelled
over only one line, the Milwaukee,
so that have not had much OppOrtun-
ity to witness the results of our circular
in regard to improved methods for ex-
tinguishing fires on railroad trains. But
must say for the Milwaukee road that
it promptly complied with our regnla-
ton which was merely strict enforce
ment of the law now on the statute
books of the state, and l presume the
others will fall in line if they have not
already done so. From personal OBJ
servation, however, | can only speak for
the line have mentioned.

heard recently, spirited story Of
bonny st. Paul girls cool rebuke of
titled immortality, which is worth whis-
pering. 1t was at the famous reception
ebf the Wabasha club, which the Duke
of Marlborough attended. The young
dady's father had informed her that
the duke was not proper person for an
innocent and self respecting girl to
meet, and that, however much he may be
run after by Eastern girls, a Western
girl with her frank independence and
wholesome contempt of men, who had
nothing but wealth and title to recon-
mend them, could not afford to know
such a person. During the evening
Miss I had refused several requests
that the duke may be presented to her.
Finally the morally bankrupt peer
came over so close to where Miss L
and a gentleman were talking, that the
Latter could not avoid an in
PRODUCTION. Miss Z calmly sur
veyed the luke" from head to
foot, said in tone as frigid as North
Pole zephyr, "GoOd evening"" and
calmly turning her back on him, went
on talking to her companion as uncon-
cernedly as though she had never heard
of the malodorous Britisher, who retired
in discontinue under the well-merited
snub. The gentleman with her in tone
that would have pleased THAcKERAY
to describe horrifedly exclaimed, "Oh,
Miss Z, do you see what you have
done? You have snubbed the Duke of
Marlborough" And to him she calmly
replied, Il have done simply as my
father toldme to do, and as l knew to
be right"

girls like that. THE WHIsPERER.

ELECTRIC EXECUTION.

The hanging of the anarchists was as
decently conducted as welI-managed
hangings ever are, but yet the mOduS
Operandi of the laws vindicatiOn was
little relieved from baIparism. The ex-
perience of ages has taught that capital
punishment is necessary for the main
tenance of law and order, for the inSpir-
alton of the proper respect and defer
ence to constituted authority essential
to the preservation of society. Yet,
from the earliest time when the Mosaic
law of life for life received recogni-
ton, there has not been a form of adj
ministering capital punishment which
did not possess an element of barbarism
akin to Savagery.
The guillotine of the French, the gar
rote of the Spaniards, the sword of the
Chinese and the rope of the English and
Americans all are successful in taking
life at the laws dictation, but none of
them can ever he anything but revolt
ing. 1t is true that to be Salutary exc
cution must not only result in the death
of the criminal. but must be hedged
around with certain grewsome awe or
ignominy, which will have a wholesome
effect upon those who are only criminals
potentially and not in fact.
But this result can be attained with
out the addition of the barbaric element.
Execution by means of electricity, for
instance, thoroughly feasible as it is,
presents no aspect of cruelty, and can
be made more awe inspiring than any
form of capital punishment now in
vogue. Prof. TYNDALL, at a lecture
some years since, demonstrated that a
battery could easily he constructed,
without occupying too much space, pow
erful enough to take a mans life as
readily as would lightning stroke, and
demonstrated it so well, that accident
ally making the connection with his
small experimental battery he was rem
dered inSenSible for some hours.
Death by means of the mysterious
and intangible something.we call cleo
tricity would certainly have a greater
moral effect upon the superStitious and
ignorant classes, from whom the crimi-
mails largely spring, than an evident
form of execution like the rope ever
can. The subject is well worth the con-
sideratiOn of Legislators and those who
believe in tempering the firm admins
tratiOn of justice with humanity.
1t is the laws duty to punish, but it is
not the laws province to torture, and
revolving torture is the inevitable con-
cOmitant of every kind of capital pun
ishment now administered.

operated successfully. Here the strain
upon the cable will be a regular one.
A certain amount of contraction, easily
provided for, will take place and the
equality of the Minnesota climate will
cause it to vary but little.
There is, therefore, no reason to ap-
prehend any difficulty, and we trust
that the time is now very near at hand
when the crOaker and his dupes will be
convinced in spite of themselves by
actual experience.

MORE RAPID TRANSIT.

If Mr.. LOWRY held the position of
weather maker he couldn't have turned
out more satisfactory job for himself
and for his cable line enterprise than the
clerk of the elements is now favOring
him with. The weather is all that any
cable line builder can ask for and it has
kindly furnished the guarantee that st.
Paul people are to ride on cable cars
this winter. Two weeks at most will
probably see the conclusion of all the
work that is to be done on the line, in
Guiding the paving that is to be done
between the tracks. But whether the
paving is completed or not the line
itself is in condition for run
ming, and the cars can be
started at almost any time. The GLOBE
has been persistent in urging forward
this work, and has been free enough in
criticiSing the delays that have occurred,
at the same time we recognize that
while some of the delays were occa-
stoned by mismanagement, we know
that many of them were unavoidable.
And, now that we are to get the cable
line within SO near the time of the date
originally fixed for its completion, we
are not disposed to make any further
complaint about delays. We will let
bygOnes be bygoneS, and share in the
general rejoicing that we are to have
cable line sure enough, and in our spirit
of exultatiGn will go sc far as to cOngrat-
ulate Mr.. LOWRY that in the face of
great difficulties he has been enabled to
fulfill his promises to the ST. Paul pub
lie.
Now that this cable lire is virtually
completed and long winter is lefore
us, the GLOBE suggests that the winter
be employed in planning rapid transit
accommodation tor other parts Of the
city. This one cable line will have all
the business it can do and is bound to
be paying investment. Yet not over
One-fifth of the city's population will
derive any special benefit from it. In
view of this fact it is proper that ar
engagements be Immediately planned for
accommodating the ether four-fifthS of
our citizens. The long winter months
will afford abundant time to form these
plans so that with the opening of spring
work may begin on other rapid transit
lines.

MOONLIGHT.
Millsville, MINI.

4 penciled line of silver in the skies,
ghostly crescent of the dimmest gray
Upon the far horizon still lies
Like some pale finger upon the lips Of day.
Slowly, all slowly through the twilight's veil,
Up from the shadows of the wide lagoon.
Where the dusk garments of the evening
trail
Rises the Furnished, copper-colored moon.
And where the Mississippi wanders by
Deep-murmuring its low, eternal tune,
See where her long gray tresses floating lie,
The ivory-t tinted tresses of the moon.
Down the white cloud-steeps like broad
disc hurled
In ancient games along some sandy dune,
All pallidly above the sleeping world
Rolls the great circle Of the yellow moon.

CABLE LINES AND COLD.

The croaker continues TO be abroad in
the land. 1t is never hot enough to
melt or cold enough to freeze this pecu-
liar person. Like the poor he is always
with us, and never loses an opportunity
TO let his strident voice be heard. For
be it remembered the crOaker is fond of
the sound of his own voice.
The cable line has given the croaker
an excellent chance for exercising his
chosen delight of fault finding. First
he doubted whether the line ever would
be built; then he declared it would
never be completed before winter set in,
and, finally, refuted in both of these as
sertions, he Is now stoutly maintaining
that the line will never be a success be-
cause the cable cannot withstand the
severity of a Minnesota winter. And
the croaker, to his delight, finds many
who give ready need to his mouthings.
But the weight of reason and experience
is not on the side of the person with the
garrulOus and grumbling tongue. 1t is
quite the contrary. In Chicago, for in
stance, the cable lines have been far
more severely tested than they are
likely to be in st. Paul.
As every one knows, the climate
which the people in the city by the lake
are compelled to endure. is far from
pleasing and cannot be compared with
the bracing ard health-giving ozone
which characteriZes the Minnesota at
mosphere. 1t brings about, in winter
firmn a p0pcfout Clio aaSSinr of fbo,ue
and piercingly cold sea sons which
would have, in the consecutive expan-
siOns and contractions, a tendency to
make the operation of a cable line
i'll winter impracticable, if anything
could. But the lines have with
stood the test, and, despite the
VileSt of vile Chicago weather, have been

Listening approvingly to Mr.. AR

incidentally the representative of &c.,

man and as hard-headed as his country
men proverbially are. Apropos of Mr..

and Northwest. He thinks the Twin
cities, despite their already great achieve
ments, are destined for still greater
things in the future. Making an annual
trip to the Northwest, as he does,
Mr.. GEDDEs is an unusually good OBJ
server of the country growth, which,
he says, is continual surprise to him.
The changes seem to grow greater from
year to year and each is more amazing
than the last. The growth during the
past year had been astonishing and he
knew of nothing TO which he could
compare it. What he particularly liked
about st. Paul was the appearance of
sOlidi.y which it presented. Solid bust
ness blocks, substantial residences and
extensive warehouses are built as
though the city had come to stay, and

cities of which he knew anything. An

had great faith was Duluth lie had

SUNDAY SILHOUETTES.

The fame of an evangelist is an
ephemeral sort of thing, after all. A
few years ago people would trayN
miles and miles to hear MOODY az
SANKEY and would stay for days and
weeks to attend their revival meetings.
Many of our st. Paul people remember
the sensation these eminent evangelistS
created here several years ago. And
yet Mr.. MOODY has returned to the
Northwest and has been preaching for
the last week in Minneapolis without
attracting more attention than if he had
never been heard of.
~
If any evangelist deserved success it
was DWIGHT l.. MOODY. Not even the
most skeptical have ever doubted the
earnest piety of the man. His modesty
has been equal to his piety. He never
manifested disposition to pose as
sensational preacher, and yet he created
more sensation in the religious world
chan any man since the days of WHIT
FIELD. But somehow the novelty
OF his work has worn off. Mr.. Moody
does not attract the audiences that he
once did, which is, perhaps, more due
to the perpetual eagerness of the multi
tude for something new than to any de-
cline in Mr.. MeoDY's evangelizing
powers.
-
The Gospel Age tells a story of two
Canadians who lately set out on a tour
of evangeliZation after the manner of
MOODY and SANKEY. The preaching
one, on beginning a meeting, took up
for his text "ThoSe that have turned the
world upside down have come hither."
He used three orthodox heads as fol-
lows: 81. The world is wrong side up.
2. The world needs to be turned upside
down. 8. We are the chaps to do it."

MORPHEUS.
God Of sweet, seductive sleepl
Ger the flowing caves Of mine heavy eyes
So haggard grown and worldly wise
Let thy languorous fingers creep;
And shut the portals, rife with craft,
Long flung ajar on ways of pain
To my parched lips press thy ether-draught,
And vision my soul with the past again.
Unfetter its ties with thy magic art,
That the spirit may SPUN its unconscious
clay,
To roll darkened channels Of time away,
And nestle again on my mothers heart
Not in sorrow and not in pain,
Forgetting the knowledge long years have
taught
On her bosom beloved to rest once again,
And re-iearn the faith long since forgot.

DRAMATIC DRIFT.

Mr.. SEAMAN ought to be satisfied
with his weeks engagem ent at the
Grand as his receipts this season were
just double those of his last years en-
gagement. His two plays, "Shane-na-

pretty pictures of life in Ireland, and
the performances are enlivened by Mr..
SCANLAN's wit and the singing of his
sweet songs.
